Buggerthebooboisie is dedicated to the memory and spirit of H.L. Mencken (above) who coined "booboisie," loosely defined as the middle class of the gullible masses. Mencken's observations and commentaries have withstood the test of time -- with appalling modern relevance. I invite all commentary that debunks the prevailing nonsense in America's political and social dialogue. As a newspaperman I also invite the reminiscences of others who recall the happier days of the trade.

New Leadership Everywhere
Interesting confluence of events in the last 24 hours: Roman Catholics get a new pope. China formally gets a new leader. Israel gets a new government -- same prime minister, unfortunately, but a coalition without the Jewish state's worst religious fanatics. Let's hope for the best on all fronts.
